Inventory on transfer

Is there a way to keep the inventory of the player when he transfers?

 

Yea i own both, and wym by slowtransfer and linked db?

 

Or just link the "players" folder of either servers with the other.

 

Never thought of that LOL

 

How?

 

Linux:

Code:

ln -s /path/to/full/directory/of/players /path/to/server2/directory

If your server is hosted on a Windows system, check this.

 

But i don't have root access, its Multicraft

 

That's bad. You are very limited to stuff that you can do. Buy a VPS/Dedicated server. I don't think you can get the best solutions while you're using multicraft. Just my two cents...

 

But mysql could work right?

 

Yes but you'll have to save the gzip-compressed (NBT) inventory into mysql. (You can refer to this code to check how I did that).
You'll also have to fetch the inventory from mysql every time the player logs in. (Both the tasks should be done asynchronously, or expect a ton of lag o/).
So the better option is to link folders.

 

Yea i see, but how can you do it asynchronously
